She spent downtime with her family and started the new year practicing a few shots. On Sunday, Korda shared a video about her golf swings on her Instagram account with a three-word caption and a laughing emoji.

“Step 1️⃣ step 2️⃣.. simple,” she wrote:

NBA legend LeBron James, who has a net worth of $1.3 billion (per Forbes), reacted to the post.

“THE BEST SWING/TEMPO there is!” he wrote.

Nelly Korda shares a glimpse of her favorite fits of 2025

Nelly Korda shared a glimpse of her favorite fits of 2025 on Instagram last week. She shared a picture of her donning a Nike white T-shirt, which she paired with a white hat and some jewelry. In the caption, the Rolex world No. 2 asked fans their favorite fits.

“hbu,” she wrote.

In 2025, Nelly Korda played in 19 tournaments and made the cut in all of them. However, she has plans to play in fewer events next season. She opened up about the schedule for the next season in a press conference at the 2025 PNC Championship. She said (via ASAP Sports):

“It’s probably 18 to 20 is my like perfect number, where it kind of like flows. I like being on max three in a row. I will not do four in a row. I’ve seen my body deteriorate over that and I kind of get into the zone of possibly getting injured.

“That’s the one thing that I have learned this year or throughout my career is just like, okay, where is my max, right? It’s okay to push it, but you want to kind of be freshest in some periods of the season. Like that middle part the season gets compacted with a lot of events and flying, so you really want to make sure you’re giving yourself a break, you’re fresh going into those,” she added.

Korda started the 2025 season with a runner-up finish at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions. She then settled for T7 at the Founders Cup.

Some of her notable finishes from this season are T5 at the Mizuho America Open, solo fifth at the ISPS Handa Women’s Scottish Open, solo third at the CME Group Tour Championship, and T2 at the Grant Thornton Invitational.
